This subject has come up on a number of occasions. If you search in the CBQ
Group Files (and BRHS if you are a member) you should find dozens of
references.
The BRHS's Zephyr #47 included an article about Oregon and its link to Mt
Morris, including a track plan of Oregon, details of industries, photos of
the depot and details of its restoration.
Hope this helps
